News for Immediate Release
Aug. 21, 2014
Harrisburg– Continuing to advance Governor Tom Corbett's JOBS1st PA initiative, Department of Community and Economic Development Secretary C. Alan Walker today announced the award of a Discovered in PA – Developed in PA grant to help launch the Latino Innovation and Growth program designed to spur business growth and new business creation in the Greater Philadelphia region.
"Providing our entrepreneurs with the tools they need to grow and create jobs is a large part of why Pennsylvania continues to be a leader in innovation," said Walker. "Grants awarded through the Discovered in PA – Developed in PA program are strategic investments in our entrepreneurs who continue to provide the vision and innovation that make Pennsylvania great."
The Greater Philadelphia Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Inc. (GPHCC) was awarded a $150,000 Discovered in PA – Developed in PA (D2PA) grant to support the Latino Innovation and Growth program.
GPHCC provides services to the growing Hispanic entrepreneurial community in the Greater Philadelphia Region. In order to address the challenges startup businesses face, small business development and educational programs were created to strengthen the advancement and economic growth of Latino small businesses.
These workshops assist startups and established businesses to engage in a growth plan through public sector procurement ensuring their sustainability overtime. The program will work with 200 business owners with one to five employees to help participants build relationships with vendors, customers and other influential people and teaches business owners how to maximize relationships for business growth.
"We successfully launched the program in June, and using the Business Model Canvas, participating Hispanic business owners mapped their business plan, creating seven jobs and retaining 49 employees," said Varsovia Fernandez, President & CEO of the Greater Philadelphia Hispanic Chamber. "The Greater Philadelphia Hispanic Chamber is truly excited that we are able to use an innovative approach to accelerated business growth in the Latino community."
Today's grant announcement continues the momentum of Gov. Corbett's JOBS1st PA initiative, which was first launched in 2012 and has created a comprehensive roadmap to economic recovery that harnessed the state's resources and talents to prioritize private-sector job creation and retention. Today, Pennsylvania's unemployment rate stands at a five-year low, and jobs have been growing on a consistent basis for nearly four years.
D2PA was established by Governor Corbett in 2011 to build capacity to support Pennsylvania businesses and to spur creativity and innovation in the provision of economic development services. Last fiscal year, the D2PA program supported initiatives tied to growing the life sciences, advanced manufacturing, business incubators, and education, workforce and economic opportunity collaborations.

"For these causes we took upon us our dominion over them, both as worthy of the same, in that we brought the greatest fleet and promptest courage to the service of the Grecians, whereas they, with the like promptness in favour of the Medes, did us hurt;
and also as being desirous to procure ourselves a strength against the Peloponnesians.
And follow any other we will not, seeing we alone have pulled down the barbarian and therefore have right to command, or at least have put ourselves into danger more for the liberty of the Peloponnesians than of all the rest of Greece, and our own besides.
Now to seek means for one's own preservation is a thing unblameable.
And as it is for our own safety's cause that we are now here, so also we find that the same will be profitable for you.
Which we will make plain from those very things which they accuse, and you, as most formidable, suspect us of, being assured that such as suspect with vehement fear, though they may be won for the present with the sweetness of an oration, yet when the matter comes to performance, will then do as shall be most for their turn.
"We have told you that we hold our dominion yonder upon fear;
and that upon the same cause we come hither now, by the help of our friends to assure the cities here, and not to bring you into subjection but rather to keep you from it.

Mark Cuban triggers 100,000 download landslide after Cycloramic visits Shark Tank
Investor Mark Cuban discusses Cycloramic with Bruno Francois, the founder of Egos Ventures. YouTube
- Michael del Castillo
- Upstart Business Journal Technology & Innovation Editor
- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn
The UpTake: Cycloramic had already been downloaded 600,000 times when the app's developer visited Shark Tank, and now it looks like that was just the beginning.
Sixty minutes after the makers of Cycloramic, an app that uses haptic feedback to take panoramic photographs appeared on Shark Tank they had 100,000 new downloads at between $0.99 and $1.99 per download. Thanks in large part to the enthusiasm of eagle eye of investor Mark Cuban.
"I would have never imagined the immediate impact the Shark Tank had on the download and the website," app developer Bruno Francois, told 9to5 Mac on Friday. "We saw a little increase in activity shortly before the show as the companies and preview were announced. As soon as our segment started, the downloads skyrocketed."
Although Francois, whose Atlanta, Georgia-based company, Egos Ventures, was founded in 2012, only asked for $90,000, Cuban jumped at the investment offering $500,000 at a $3 million valuation. During Francois's pitch he said the app was selling for $0.99 per download, but it is currently listed at $1.99 per download.
In addition to Cycloramic, Ego Ventures, is experimenting with Trackoramic, an iPhone controlled keyboard that could be used with FaceTime, according to their site.

Radwanska body shots irk Poland
Sam Gardner, FOX Sports
Tue Jul 16, 3:11 AM UTC
Wimbledon women's semifinalist Agnieszka Radwanska stripped down for ESPN The Magazine's Body Issue, and according to reports, the 24-year-old's stark naked photos have Catholics in her native Poland stark raving mad.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the Catholic group Youth Crusade is distancing itself from Radwanska on account of "immoral behavior" exhibited in her photo shoot, which featured nude, but not explicit photos of the world's No. 4 player both floating in and sitting next to a pool filled with tennis balls.
Youth Crusade runs a campaign called "I am not ashamed of Jesus," which Radwanska participated in two years ago.
One of Radwanska's au naturel photos was featured on the cover of Wprost, a popular Polish news magazine, and Father Marek Dziewiecki, a senior Catholic priest, expressed outrage over the image in an interview with The Telegraph.
"It's a shame that someone who has declared their love for Jesus is now promoting the mentality of men looking at a woman as a thing rather than a child of God worthy of respect and love," Dziewiecki said.
"If she meets a man who she can truly love and establish a happy family and raise Catholic children, then she would probably have to hide these pictures from relatives."
According to AFP, more than 90 percent of Poland — which was the home to Pope John Paul II — identifies itself as Catholic.

Olympians, Aly Dudek and Steve Langton, had a rocky experience from the start. They had a flat tire, and finished last on the first leg in Namibia, which fortunately was a non-elimination leg. However, the couple were unable to overcome an additional Speed Bump and being U-Turned by Tyler and Laura. Sadly, they were eliminated from

4 Reasons Why You Should Watch 'Wayward Pines'
In the premiere of FOX's
Wayward Pines
, the much-anticipated 10-episode small screen adaptation of Blake Crouch's international best-selling series of books, Special Agent Ethan Burke (Matt Dillon) is having a bad, bad day. He wakes up, alone, in the middle of a dark lush forest. He's battered and bruised. Things quickly go from bad to weird, as Burke finds he has arrived in Wayward Pines, Idaho. A picture-perfect hamlet where the people are incredibly attractive but disturbingly strange.
This probably sounds like another show many people remember and love,
Twin Peaks
. You know you're in for trouble when the town slogan is "When Paradise is Home." If the premiere of this psychological thriller is any indication of what's to come, here's a few reasons why you should run -- not walk -- to your Lazy-Boy.

Our skin loves the all-in-one formula, which smooths, tones, downplays wrinkles, and sinks a slew of skin-perfecting minerals into our pores, leaving non-greasy moisture in its wake.
It all starts under the sea, apparently: Seaweed extract works to tone and smooth skin, while detoxifying marine algae targets wrinkles, past and future. Meanwhile, mineral-packed marine powders draw out blackheads, shrink the appearance of pores, and increase skin's elasticity. The water-activated formula also leaves you with 24 hours of intense moisture. Oh, and it's free of parabens and sulfates, and never tested on animals. Each package contains four mask applications.
Now's your chance to play beauty chemist: After cleansing skin, take out either the Mixing Tub or Travel Mixing Dish. In the dish, combine one capsule of Active Mask Powder and one vial of Intensive Booster. Fill your empty capsule with cool tap water and add that to the mix, then stir it all together with the spatula. Immediately apply the entire mask to face. Peel off after 15 minutes by gently loosening and lifting the outer edges of the mask (note: It might still feel a little moist). If residue remains, rinse and pat dry.
Active mask powder ingredients: diatomaceous earth, algin, calcium sulfate, tetrasodium phyrophosphate, cyamopsis tetragonoloba (guar) gum, sodium ascorbate, maltodextrin, malpighia punicifolia (acerola) fruit extract, mica (CI 77019), titanium dioxide (CI 77891), red36 (CI12085), yellow 6 (CI15985), fragrance (parfum), hexyl cinnamal. hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde.
Intensive booster ingredients: water (aqua), glycerin, porphyra umbilicalis (nori) extract, fucus vesiculosus (bladderwrack) extract, laminaria digitata extract, citrullus vulgaris (watermelon) fruit extract, pyrus malus (apple) fruit extract, lens esculenta (lentil) fruit extract, sodium PCA, sodium lactate, butylene glycol, rose multiflora extract, paeonia albiflora root extract, fragrance (parfum), potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate, citric acid.

At the Birdfair …
Monday, August 17th, 2009OK, for everyone who reads this blog or who may stumble upon it by accident please note that I'm going to be in the UK next week, principally at the British Birdwatching Fair. I'm going to have the same stand as always, Marquee 4 Stand 97, and sincerely hope to see you there!
I'm also going to be giving a lecture on the Threat to the Montados and what we can all do to save it, (Sunday 23rd August 15.30, Lecture Marquee 2), so I also hope that some of you will be able to make it to that also! I haven't posted a picture of this as there're plenty on this blog already, but please come along and have a chat at the Birdfair; see you there!
Smithy, Araby, Beetle and Kate

Re: Matt Schaub
losing the person who runs your defense doesn't exactly make things easier the last thing our defense is overrated. |

Re: Matt Schaub
Yates had a bad game, it's not the end of the world. He still exhibited a great control of the offense, he just made a couple of stupid decisions that you would expect a rookie to make.
We can win a Super Bowl with TJ Yates.
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos. |

Re: Matt Schaub
Schaub is what he is. He's a good qb when the pocket is perfect and clean. In the playoffs, thats not going to be the case because the teams you're playing. I think Yates has the mobility inside the pocket to make plays when its not perfect and I think thats whats needed the further you get. Will he have issues as a rookie? Yes, but as he gains experience, he will be a better player in this offense. Stats are for losers and we've seen 4000 yds with losses by schaub. We've seen the pick 6 on out route in games or underthrows that would be easy td by a qb with an arm.
Be a student of the game, not a fan. |

Re: Matt Schaub
Last weekend, I was taken aback with the number of see I told you so
. T.J. Yates should take over for Matt Schaub next year tweets I received after the game against the Bengals was over. In response, I put out my own tweet:
@LanceZierlein: Awesome win today, but did I watch a different game than everyone else? T.J. Yates had a great final drive but has a long way to go guys. **** Yates made some great plays down the stretch against the Bengals that well always remember fondly, but the Texans know they cant stick Yates with the same responsibilities to move the ball that they would stick Schaub with. http://blog.chron.com/fantasyfootbal...-about-texans/ *********** I basically share the sentiments of Houstons own NFL-guru Lance Zierlein about having TJ in the place of Schaub: it may not necessarily be like night vs day but there's a big, big difference and TJ has miles and miles to go before he's even in the conversation with Matt in terms of being a competent NFL QB. Is this meant to "bad-mouth" Yates ? Absolutely not because his contribution to the Texans winning the division and getting the team into the playoffs is immense. Under the circumstances he's done more than we could have ever expected of him. |

Re: Matt Schaub
15 games; 271/428, 63.3%; 3479 yards, 8.1 Y/A; 14 TDs, 10 INTs. Completely different now to his first year. Won 1 lost 5 without Andre in 07, throwing 2 TDs and 6 INTs. 6-3 in 10/11, with 12 TDs to 4 INTs. How much is that him, and how much the team? |
12-20-2011 | #27 | |
& so it begins
Re: Matt Schaub
It's still all about projections & expectations with TJ. I don't believe there are people saying Tj should replace Schaub now. It's all, "if he continues to progress." Personally, that hasn't changed. I still like what Tj brings to the table. I still think Matt is more than competent & can get us to the big dance. I think we are in a very good position to see what Tj can do before this team has to make a decision. |

Re: Matt Schaub
Schaub has looked just as bad as Yates did .... numerous times. Yates still has a stronger arm, is more mobile, seems to be a willing leader which Matt has never been. If he continues to improve he is the future for now. Trade Matt before the deadline next year and get something for him before his final contract year is up and he just walks.

Caverning is the practice of using an IV drip to fill a man's scrotum with saline solution, thus causing it to swell to enormous proportions.
I wasn't going to go down on him, but then when I saw how big and magnificent his caverned balls looked, I couldn't help myself.

The Conveniences Of Getting An Auto Insurance Quote Online
Before the Internet was available, car owners had to physically travel from one insurance agency to another in order to get an auto insurance quote. This painstaking process was time consuming and inconvenient. From one insurance agent's office to another, there was always the hassle of filling out paperwork, providing driving records and giving out personal information. Searching for an auto insurance quote that was within a price range the driver wanted while still providing the amount of coverage required was like searching for a needle in a haystack. Now with the conveniences of the Internet, shopping for car insurance takes a little more than ten minutes time.
From the Comfort of Your Home
Searching for an auto insurance quote is fast and easy when you log into AgentInsure. Using online resources, you can get multiple quotes and compare them from the comfort of your home. You will receive personalized coverage information with just a few mouse clicks.
AgentInsure is a website that is dedicated to providing you with car insurance quotes from multiple agencies all in three easy steps. First, create a profile on their website including any other drivers that will be on your insurance policy. Second, provide the information needed to search for an auto insurance quote in your area. Don't forget to specify the exact make and model of your vehicle. Finally, choose which coverage options meet your auto insurance needs. Most states require that all drivers have at least the minimum liability coverage. Keep that in mind when selecting which coverage options you'd like to include in your auto insurance policy. Within minutes, AgentInsure will provide you with the information about what coverage options and pricing is available through a local independent insurance agent.
Compare Prices
Using AgentInsure, there is no need to look anywhere else for multiple, comparative real-time car insurance quotes. After your information is registered within their database, you will receive quotes from multiple insurance agencies. This feature enables those shopping for auto insurance to make comparisons and select an auto insurance quote that meets their personal needs and budget. There is no longer a need for physically wondering from agency to agency and leaving a paper trail behind. With information you already provided, AgentInsure is able to find insurance quotes from multiple agents. No paper work and no hassle, and these are just a couple more reasons why shopping for car insurance online is so convenient.
AgentInsure is a privately owned company that was established in 2003. Their database contains information from over 8,000 insurance agencies nationwide. They provide insurance quotes for both automobiles and homes. Their goal is to offer their customers a competitive auto insurance quote along with great customer service from a local independent agent.

We report the fabrication and operation of a lateral coupled cavity semiconductor laser that consists of two phase-locked parallel lasers of different lengths and with separate electrical contacts. Mode selectivity that results from the interaction between the two supermodes is investigated experimentally. Frequency selectivity and tunability are obtained by controlling the current to each laser separately. Highly stable single mode operation is also demonstrated.

text: CHARITABLE TICKET DONATION PROGRAM CEDAR POINT AMUSEMENT PARK 1 Cedar Point Drive Sandusky, OH 44870 PHONE.....1-419-627-2350 TTY.......1-800-750-0750 Telephone Service available year-round, C.P. Opens May 11, 2013. Cedar Point donates one-day Cedar Point admission tickets to qualifying applicants. Unfortunately, we do not donate Soak City or Castaway Bay waterpark tickets. We also do not donate season passes or overnight Cedar Point Resort accommodations. Please read this information carefully prior to submitting your application to determine if you may be eligible for complimentary Cedar Point one-day admission tickets. Requests not using the proper online form will not be considered or acted upon. The purpose of Cedar Point's Charitable Ticket Donation Program is to assist individuals and qualified non-profit organizations. Tickets for this program are limited and the guidelines below are strictly enforced. NEED Donations are made based on need. We strive to assist as many physically or emotionally disabled individuals as we possibly can. FUND-RAISING Fund-raising provides valuable support to schools, churches, organizations and communities. Due to the demand, however, donations for fund-raising efforts are only made to causes that directly assist physically or emotionally disabled individuals, persons suffering from a catastrophic illness or who require a life-saving medical procedure or medical research. Some requests for fund-raisers that do not qualify include raising funds for the purchase of playground, sporting or computer equipment, scholarship programs, building renovations/expansions, general operating expenses, etc. We also do not donate tickets to be used as rewards for reading programs or prizes for events. NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS National organizations with chapters or branches throughout the country solicit our support each year (i.e. American Cancer Society, American Heart Association, American Red Cross, United Way, Muscular Dystrophy Association, etc.). Due to the vast number of requests received, we try to support national and regional organizations or efforts on their behalf in our local surrounding area. There are some organizations that do not solicit donations in our own community and therefore we do consider these requests outside of our local community. MAKE-A-WISH Make-A-Wish requests will only be considered when submitted directly through a Make-A-Wish Chapter. Individual requests will not be considered. INCENTIVES/REWARDS Donations are not given to organizations for incentives or rewards for their staff members being honored for their volunteer services for the organization, for students as incentives for good behavior and good attendance at school, as an incentive to entice children to participate in summer reading programs, etc. AFTER PROM/POST-GRADUATION ACTIVITIES We do not donate to Post-Graduation/Prom activities. We receive numerous requests from high school groups and with limited resources available, we cannot provide tickets to every graduating class who requests them. Therefore, to be as fair as possible, we do not donate to any of these types of requests. OTHER We usually do not make more than one donation to an individual, organization or cause in a given year. With few exceptions, we do not contribute to the same group or organization in consecutive years. Donations are two to four complimentary tickets per qualifying request in most cases. The above policies are basic guidelines. There will be times, however, when exceptions are warranted and will be made at the discretion of the program administrator. We require the submission of a flyer or brochure for all events. If you do not upload your flyer or brochure it will void your request. If you meet these guidelines and would like to submit an application online, please click link and fill out bottom of page and click "NEXT".
